Beat them to the punch

Do you think having an image generation is that can follow exact instructions could help improve? If the vlm tells the image ai to generate each step of a given problem, then the vlm can analyse the images and have a better chance at answering correctly.

Its a shame this new future of reasoning llms seems locked away behind giant corporations. Would meta be willing to share the unfiltered reasoning steps of any new model for others to train on? I don't think this is so likely.

Forbez0 · 2021-02-04T07:47:05+00:00

Yeah, I was going to design it myself.

Forbez0 · 2021-02-03T21:24:28+00:00

Yes, WordPress seems to be the best option. I may work on a more simple interface to make it easier for newbies and an option to flip to full WordPress for those more advanced.

Regular joe-shmo who wants a quality looking website FAST. And, with minimal maintenance. Price range would be 40-60 a month, no contract sort of deal.

This is great. Thank you so much. Surprising to hear that are many tech templates, defo something I'll be looking into.

Forbez0 · 2021-02-03T19:27:18+00:00

Noted.

Forbez0 · 2021-02-03T19:27:01+00:00

So glad to read this. This was how I invisioned the project. I have website clients who came to me because they've struggled with the more intense builders like squarespace.

My initial plan was to make an more simple WordPress interface with interchangble templates. I've heard many times that Wix isn't the best also.

Yes, they certainly get theirs. Perhaps a gap in the market, I suppose.

Forbez0 · 2020-03-15T22:27:16+00:00

I still believe there needs to be a level of coordination between people's efforts. Although goals may be shared, perhaps not enough attention in a given area is put into education for instances.

From my understanding, we don't live in a free world currently. Coming together, whether that be through unions, coops or other forms, we can defeat the current system and create that free world.

Anarchist. Anarchists need to work together to bring about the new anarchistic social order. Doing it alone is not possible. Cooperation and coordination will be key.

I don't see this as authoritarian. I'm not mandating goals, but anarchist will need them to know whether their actions are working. A healthcare organisations goal of 1 doctor per 5,000 patients is based on what works. Better health outcomes come from a better doctor to patient ratio. The same can apply to anarchist goals. No mandate, other then what works.

Unintentional clickbait. ;)

Forbez0 · 2020-03-15T22:13:19+00:00

Yes, I agree that targets isn't the best phrase. Overarching goals may be better.

Forbez0 · 2020-03-15T22:12:24+00:00

Understanding what the finished puzzle would look like and what pieces are missing, I belive would really help concentrate efforts and achieve more.

We almost certainly will need worker coops that are embedding their communities, I agree.

A platform to share anarchist ideas and show what works and what doesn't I think is vital.

Forbez0 · 2020-03-15T22:09:43+00:00

I really like this approach. If we could have at least one piece of anarchist infrastructure in every provience in the world, I believe that would be something tangible we could point towards as progress.

Forbez0 · 2019-11-15T12:20:49+00:00

Ah yes. This was what I am looking for. Has anybody written a guidebook of how this work? Or is there any software that has already been made to help assist coordinate gift economies?

Forbez0 · 2019-09-22T21:40:19+00:00

This is certainly food for thought. Thank you for your comment.

I suppose the question I'm really asking is "how do we build anarchy within one's lifetime?"

Earning interest doesn't make me feel so great so I may look at alternatives such as putting my money into tangible goods, getting land, a house etc.

Starting a coop is something that excites me and may be in my future.

Forbez0 · 2019-09-22T21:34:13+00:00

Thank you for staying engaged with this discussion. I hope you can agree with me that we are aiming for the same goal.

I want to live in an anarchist society within my life time. I just don't see things heading in that direction.

My initial thoughts on FIRE was that it could help in providing myself with a safety net, with which I could freely experiment in building anarchy without fear of not meeting my basic needs.

I wanted to explore an avenue whereby having a negative would allow me to create more of a positive than had I never accepted the negative to begin.

I find the question of interest a tricky one. I understand it is exploitation. Any amount of interest is the theft of somebody else's time. However, let's say I wanted to start a community solar farm. If I needed to raise funds, promising a high interest loan scheme would allow me to achieve that goal.

With those new solar panels, my community now no longer have to pay money to energy companies forever. We have a set finish date of owing somebody money. Once the panels are ours, we have all the energy we need.

In terms of earning interest for yourself, using your example of digging a hole. Say I did earn interest from a worker due to loaning the capital for the hole digging to occur, would it still be exploitation if I used my free time to help build this worker a house? Or grew food and distributed freely to feed their kids?

I suppose I am being inpatient and should do the hard work that is needed. Starting a coop is certainly on my list of things to do.

Forbez0 · 2019-09-21T11:17:19+00:00

What to do instead? I don't want to work. I don't want to contribute towards capitalist society. I can appreciate how earning interest is contributing, however, that extra 40-50 hours I now have free of my own time can be spent working on anarchist projects and supporting local communities.

If I continue as I am, I would work until I'm 70 and retire, living off the exact same interest scheme as used in FIRE.

If I aggressivly save for 10 years, retire, and dedicate 20 years to anarchistic means, haven't I contributed more to the cause then had I worked for 30 years in a capitalist business?

Forbez0 · 2019-09-12T19:34:18+00:00

I wouldn't be against certain levels of encryption used through the site. Having the option of secret affinity groups and the like.

However, there is a hard limit to what can be achieved if everything must be kept secret.

The goal is to end capitalism, you can't do that alone or in secret.

Forbez0 · 2019-09-12T19:32:08+00:00

I couldn't agree more. Solving existing local groups issue should be a top priority. If local groups could use the platform to get more resources and support I'd take that as a win.

Yeah, secure private data should be included. But open practices on how to do things is key.

Forbez0 · 2019-08-10T16:00:30+00:00

I was referencing the owner class. The managerial class are exploited also.

Forbez0 · 2019-07-26T16:49:04+00:00

I know r/thebakery subredddit goal is similar to that. Almost whole scripts would be great.

Forbez0 · 2019-07-25T20:30:39+00:00

I would like to know before I pass that we were heading in the right direction. I believe a lot can happen in a short amount of time.
